I did that last year ALONE and loved it! My friends all thought I was nuts/were worried about my anti-socialness, haha But I stayed in, cooked a nice dinner, and watched the Sex and the City marathon and reflected on the year--which I needed to do!

My new years was terribly anticlimactic. Boyfriend came over, had dinner and watched TV while my mom sat and complained the WHOLE time. See, the heat is out in part of our house, and rather than go in the bedroom to be warm, she bitches about how cold it is in the den. The high point of the night was when she fell asleep with her mouth open. :o

But, I'm just getting over being sick, so it was nice to stay in.

We played Dance Dance Revolution till midnight and then rang in the new year with 2.99 champagne. We had maybe 10 minutes alone all night

School starts in 21 days...can't wait :)

Well, my New Years was interesting--and I warn you, this may be a little long and FULL of "why me, God??" questions. My friend Alison had a party, so I headed there with my friend Catherine and her boyfriend. I had not planned on drinking much, because I didn't want to feel like shit the next day and I was also still recovering from Friday and Saturday. But we get there, and its all my good friends from college, plus some fun new people, so I decide I will just drink in moderation and just sleep at Alison's. Yeah--that can happen on New Years Eve--RIGHT. But I really so start out the night drinking slowly, just a BudLight or 2. And then, the night got interesting. See, there were one or two single guys there, all of which were cute but just not my type. And for all of you who know or don't know, I have been the fitness and diet diva for the last 9 months and have lost a LOT of weight, so I was in the mood to be picky and not just kiss someone for kissings sake. And then, a cutie walks in--one of Alison's friends from high school. So, we keep doing that little smiley thing at each other and by now, I realize I am getting drunk, but still okay. Midnight comes, and we down some champagne, which I HATE(initation night flashbacks!) but I take a few sips. And then they break out the downfall--CHOCOLATE MARTINI'S. I have HALF of one and know that I am DONE. Everyone else downs there whole glass and from there, we head to the living room. And at this point, the cute friend and I have our arms wrapped around each other and are sitting in a chair, just talking. At this point, my friend Alison pulls me aside to tell me that one of her other friends thinks I am cute and wants to know if he has a chance. Well, personally, I think the sight of me cuddling with another guy should have tipped him off, but I guess not. So, I tell Alison that he is a nice guy but not my type and head back to my cuddling buddy. Well, we have now been joined by rejected boy, who proceeds to sit and GLARE at us the whole time. So, cuddle buddy and I move to another room and are laying on the couch, just kissing. I am thinking this is a great way to ring in the NEw Year and yay for me. But suddenly he bolts up and runs for the bathroom, where I now hear him throwing up. Well, that was the first buzzkill of the night. The second begins when I hear another person run for the bathroom, say "Oh shit" and proceed to throw up on the floor. That would be my friend Catherine, who did not make the toilet because cuddle buddy was using it. So, she begins to cry and I go in there to help her and him. I go find some carpet cleaner, 409, towels, all the rest. Help Catherine to bed. Put cuddle buddy on the couch. And clean up SOMEONE ELSE's throw up on New Years Eve. Not what I thought would be fun. And DEFINATELY something to sober me up. But it was still a fun night till then. Guess the moral of the story is NEVER FINISH YOUR CHOCOLATE MARTINI!!

New Year's was cool - went to my cousin's, his fiancee's birthday is New Year's eve, so he has this New Year's/Birthday party every year. It was interesting, and included a kid puking exactly at midnight (and I mean EXACTLY on the strike of midnight) and the usual drunken fun. I ate probably half a casserole dish full of taco dip and fell asleep on my cousin's floor (with my coat as my pillow), and woke up the next morning to the sound of his friend Brandon snoring (the loudest I've ever heard, woke me up from across the room) The best part - I only made a couple of drunk dials (and none that I will regret)

My New Year's Eve was fun. My boyfriend and I went over to this guy on his soccer team's house but we didn't know anyone besides the guy who lived there, and everybody was raving and listening to trance music. Nothing wrong with that, but it's just not our thing. So we left and went over to this other house where his brother and some of his friends were hanging out. We knew most of the people there so it was a lot more fun. I didn't drink too much because I didn't want to be hungover so I only had like 3 beers and some champagne the whole night. It was fun, and it sure beats last year when I was recovering from having my wisdom teeth taken out!

You knowwhat can be a very bad thing??!!! Having someone video tape the whole drunken night!! OMG I didnt remember bits and pieces of the night...lol and I even had myself saying on camera that I wasnt drunk..you know what?? I DONT EVEN REMEMBER SAYING THAT!! lol wow!! I think we need to get rid of the tape too..but it was a digital video camera and everyone of us have a copy of the night..*not something Im gonna show my kids* although it makes for very funny viewing!
